As the death toll rises, we look at everything from seismic changes in economic policy to shifts in the way we view and treat other people, and from a drop in pollution to the widening of the gaps between rich and poor, young and old and the North and South , this film asks what a post-Covid 19 Britain, torn apart by the disease, might look like. As news outlets inevitably cover the day-to-day, Dispatches will take a step back and look at a virus which has the potential not just to change the way we live in the short term but forever.

The epicentre of a dangerous new viral outbreak – Covid-19. In a space of just three months, a global pandemic is declared. Healthcare systems are overwhelmed, economies are disrupted and governments impose lockdowns to contain the spread of the virus. Where did this novel coronavirus come from? In what way was it manifesting itself in humans? How was it being spread? We uncover the vital questions scientists ask as they grapple to understand this new virus, and its potential threat. We also speak to the scientists and experts leading the fight against this latest pandemic to develop vaccines and treatments in a bid to halt the coronavirus’ relentless spread.

The world is facing a new threat - the infection COVID-19. How do you respond to an enemy that you can't see? We discover how one country has united to take on the new threat of COVID-19. Singapore is rallying together to fight this invisible enemy. From everyday heroes on the front line to businesses keeping it going, the island is fighting back.

A special report on the government response to the coronavirus and the human toll investigates the federal response versus Washington State, the outbreak’s U.S. epicenter; and in the Midwest, how the outbreak impacts poor children.

Like virtually every animal, humans need sleep to survive. But why? Scientists peer into the brain to see what happens while we snooze and understand the powerful role that sleep—or lack of it—plays in memory, trauma and emotion regulation.

This is possible in a pseudophakic eye and has the advantage of preventing possible corneal endothelial decompensation secondary to tube-corneal touch. Posterior chamber tube insertion may also be performed by combining surgery with phacoemulsification in older patients with lens changes.
The video demonstrates use of the patient’s own scleral flap to cover the tube, though it is also possible to use preserved sclera or pericardium for this purpose. Fibrin glue is then carefully used to close the edges of the conjunctiva, ensuring that none passes posteriorly into the sub-Tenon’s space. Video segments also discuss priming of the valve, conjunctival peritomy, sub-Tenon dissection, and how to suture the valve plate. The final segments of the video detail how to trim the tube, the insertion of the tube into the posterior chamber, as well as how to anchor the tube to the sclera via a stay suture, and best practices to closing the scleral flap and conjunctiva.

Patients may have attributed their vision loss to comorbid ocular pathology, such as cataracts. Previously, neovascular AMD often progressed from one eye to the other and caused great loss of function in the patient. This video covers topics unique to this phenomena that physician and students should know. Topics include treatment options that greatly reduce the risk of vision loss, present lower costs, the pros and cons of drugs, and other considerations. The videos also cover the limited evidence currently available, prognosis for better treatment options in the future, and patient perceptions on AMD based on common misconceptions and misinformation.

Vision loss affects patient’s activities of daily living (ADLs) and quality of life. Cataracts are associated with risk factors such as increased age, diabetes mellitus, and steroid use. It is important for physicians to recognize that patients may not fully understand how cataracts contribute to vision loss and may attribute it to an incorrect eyeglass prescription or other etiology. This video covers cataracts in aging patients, who frequently have additional comorbidities or healthcare consideration to take into account that a non-geriatrician may not be trained to factor into care.
